This post made me chuckle. Carol's Christmas tree that probably should have burned down the house was great, so is the fact that you start Christmas shopping on Dec 26. I also laughed about fake trees keeping the peace in a marriage. I think the first fight Brian and I got in after getting married was when we were trying to put up our first Christmas tree. We are older and wiser now and have a fake tree that opens up like a balloon and is pre-lit. Pure genius!
YOur nativity is beautiful. Looking forward to a fun christmas party this year.
Great post. I learned so much about you, and your Christmas traditions and such. I love it. Miss you.
